The planetary diet: a nutritional utopia in conflict with human evolution

Nutritional strategies must account for evolutionary metabolism, regional diversity, and clinical outcomes. Ancestral, autogenous diets may offer a more effective and ecological solution that can meet nutritional requirements based on fundamental physiology.
